Seared Salmon with Roasted Broccoli and Quinoa
Enjoy a flavorful dinner featuring a perfectly seared salmon fillet paired with tender roasted broccoli and a serving of fluffy quinoa. This dish delivers a harmonious blend of textures and tastes, with the rich, savory salmon complemented by the natural sweetness of roasted broccoli and the nutty undertones of quinoa.
INGREDIENTS
5 ounces Salmon Fillet
1.5 cups chopped Broccoli
1/2 cup cooked Quinoa
1 teaspoon Extra Virgin Olive Oil
Pinch of Salt
Dash of Black Pepper
PREPARATION
Preheat your oven to 425°F for roasting the broccoli.
Rinse and pat dry the salmon fillet. Season lightly with salt and pepper on both sides.
Heat a non-stick skillet over medium-high heat and add the olive oil. Once shimmering, place the salmon skin-side down (if skin-on) and sear for about 3-4 minutes until a golden crust forms.
Flip the salmon and sear the other side for an additional 2-3 minutes. Remove from heat; the salmon will finish cooking as you serve.
Meanwhile, toss the chopped broccoli with a light sprinkle of salt, pepper, and a drizzle of olive oil (if desired extra for roasting) on a baking sheet. Roast in the preheated oven for 12-15 minutes until the edges are slightly crispy.
Reheat or prepare the cooked quinoa according to package instructions if not already cooked.
Plate the salmon alongside the roasted broccoli and a serving of quinoa. Drizzle with any pan juices if desired, and serve immediately.
